Individuals and organizations large and small are looking for ways to help the environment, demonstrate their commitment to reducing greenhouse gases, and reduce our nation's dependence on fossil fuels for energy. One effective way to achieve these goals is the production and use of renewable energy. Renewable energy technologies (such as wind, solar, and geothermal) are becoming cost-effective, viable energy sources and are increasingly taking the place of fossil fuels.

Many States see the interest in renewable energy and further are encouraging the development of renewable energy markets. Approximately 20 States have developed Renewable Energy Portfolio Standards (RPS), creating a mandate for a certain percentage of energy generated come from renewable sources and thereby creating a market for renewable energy credits (RECs) that can be bought and sold. In addition, States like New Jersey and New York are providing aggressive rebates that make renewable energy technologies even more attractive. The Federal government also includes multiple tax credits and other tax-based incentives to encourage the use of renewable energy technologies.

One of the renewable energy technologies that is in greatest demand is solar energy, particularly in California, New York, and New Jersey. Rebates and other incentives make solar electric systems (photovoltaic systems) cash positive investments for many customers. These customers are now able to help the environment and effectively reduce their electric bills at the same time.
